Everything ABC's Blog Hop - Letter A

Welcome to the Everything ABC's Blog Hop!

For this hop we will be featuring the letter "A".  

This may be the name of a paper, a stamp set or an embellishment.  

Whatever the crafter has chosen as their "element" will be featured in their post.

If you came from Diana Saunders then you're on the right track!  

I hope you enjoy the "A" inspired expressions of creativity. 

My letter "A" inspiration is from the "A" size stamp set Heartfelt Hello A1202

With Hello Lovely Paper Pack, gold glitter trim and gold glitter gems.

The next person in this blog-hop loop is Jenifer Benner of Jen's Messy Studio .

  I hope you enjoyed the inspirations and will encourage us with some comments.

Complements are a CRAZY FAST way to create cards. 

Just peal and stick, add some bling, 

stamp a sentiment or not, and you are done!

I used Hello Lovely Complements, Blush Shimmer Ribbon, Gold Sequins, Gold Glitter GEMS. Clear Sparkles, Sorbet Patterned paper from Hello Lovely Paper Pack, Gold Shimmer Trim, Sorbet ink and Card Stock, Sea Glass Card Stock and some gold paper from Uptown Fundamentals.

  The sentiment is from "In Bloom" stamped in New England Ivy.

 
Now, hop on over to Annemarie Julian's blog
